Drive to Mansfied via Eildon with the BMWCCV

Todays run clubMINI invited along the BMW Car Club of Victoria.  About 30 cars ranging from MINIs, BMWs, a Lamborghini and a Captiva all met at Lilydale McDonalds at  8 am for the run.

Cars and drivers debriefing prior to the run


Checking out the go fast bits on the Cooper S

From Lilydale the convoy headed for The Black Spur...

Z4, and MINIs cruising through the tall gums of the Black Spur
... and then onto Eildon for a pit stop at the lake

Scheduled pit stop at Eildon
From here the roads to Mansfield take on a scenic and twisty route, the convoy split into two groups - Group 1 took the fast route and Group 2 went the more direct and less twisty route.

The rose between the thorns or the other way around?? hmmm
MINIs and a 1 Series Coupe just out of view
Enjoying lunch
The run finally arrived at the Delatite Hotel in Mansfield where a well deserved pub meal was enjoyed by all.

That F56 S all by its lonesome
Look at the angles of that Lambo bumper.. oh and nice MINI rims too!

Nice plates oh and Go Pro on the Z4
